“Parents come up to me all the time and say, “I can’t get my kids reading.” I commiserate, then I tell them, “Hey, do you manage to get them to the dinner table? Do you allow them to track mud or snow onto your living-room carpet? Do you let them curse in church?” Then make this a rule: We read in our house.”
James Patterson
Simple, but not easy.
Start with design.
Make a rule.
Create a space: time and place.
Don’t rely on best intentions.
Seven days a week is easier than three.
